Characters: Anyone coming to Zo's carnival
Setting: Cafeteria; please specify the date and location in the carnival in your subject header!
Format: Anything
Summary: Zo has set up a carnival for the residents, but it's not meant to last. Anyone wandering after the bombs go off might see things they never wanted to see...
Warnings: Psychological and body horror
Note: Characters entering the carnival from the 27th to the 30th will experience visions! Please refer to the info post for details and reply to this thread if your character enters the carnival during these days.

[The carnival has taken up the entirety of the cafeteria. A large roller coaster and ferris wheel tower over the residents, while a child-sized roller coaster, a merry-go-round, and spinning teacups project much less daunting silhouettes. Stands are set up with standard carnival foods available, from ice cream to cotton candy. These stands do not ask for anything as payment.

On the twenty-seventh, the carnival appearance changes. The machinery all appears rusted and broken down, as if weathered with decades of rain and snow. Plants grow up and around the rides, ruining them, and all the food is rotten.]

[As it turned out, there was already someone seated at the bench, with her legs crossed and looking either bored or very reluctant to get off the bench.]

That's what I said, but I'm basically waiting for some kind of monster space crab to pop out of the ferris wheel.

Well if it does, good. I've been looking for something's butt to kick.

[Only partially joking really. The Tower monsters don't count most of the time because they've kicked her ass a few too many times]

[reddeadvirtuoso]

No way, dude. [She put up both of her hands with the palms facing flat out in front of her. She was partially joking herself, but monster space animals was no laughing matter.]

I been here when a giant fuckin space whale crashed the party and trust me, giant space aquatic monsters are a super raw deal around here. Like they just kind of smash shit up and it's really awful kind of raw deal.

[Dani stares at Jade incredulously]

So you're telling me there's actually been a giant space whale here before? What happened?
